| I'm trying to setup a simple network (aka MAC?) bridge, like you can do
in Windows XP. My RH 7.3 box has 2 nics, eth0 being the main connection
to the lan using 10mbps BNC, and eth1 being a 100mbps cat5 going to a
hub to allow mobile computers to quickly plugin to our lan. (I realize
BNC is rather old, and in the distant future we migth upgrade, but as it
stands we can do so for a long time.)
I came across a "mini" how-to, downloaded brcfg and ran ./brcfg -ena but
that doesn't seem to do anything.
Is ther any simple way to get this owrking. The how-to mentioned
something about recompiling the kernel with a CONFIG BRIDGING=y, but
I've never had to recompile it before, and am really not sure how to, so
if this has to be done, could someone please tell me how.
All help much abliged.
